About this market
Part of the established My Kids Market NSW network - a family-run operation connecting parents, small businesses and local services across Sydney, the Central Coast, Newcastle and beyond - the Wollongong edition brings the same community warmth to the Illawarra at Illawarra Sports Stadium in Berkeley. Expect a bustling indoor hall filled with mums and dads recycling quality pre-loved clothing, prams, cots, toys, bikes and nursery furniture, alongside a curated selection of small business stalls showcasing handmade and new goods. With 60-70 stallholders across each event and a dedicated Large Items Area for easy browsing of bulky gear, it is one of the most practical and affordable shopping experiences for expectant parents and families with kids from newborn through to tween. Held indoors, the market runs rain or shine, making it a reliable fixture on the Wollongong family calendar.
